This card was designed for the F4A385 "Lucky Sevens" Challenge- this challenge was a "real challenge" for me since I do not have any type of playing card stamps, etc.
I decided to search online for free digital images and found this King of Diamonds image in black and white ( see here for the freebie ) and paired it with a retired SU! digi image of Vintage Verses.
I loaded both images into MDS, printed them out onto Whisper White cardstock and colored the King of Diamonds with SU! and Derwent Watercolor Pencils, added bit of color with the SU! Real Red & Crushed Curry Markers and added shimmer to his crown with a clear glitter pen (I "googled" card images for the colors :-)).
The background was embossed with a diamond EF and layers of Basic Black and Real Red finished off the card.
I may post this to my blog later and if so, will link at that time.
I am also linking to the All Occasion Card Challenge for July as well as the USEIT2017 Challenge.
Thanks again for looking- I hope you can play along with us!

FABULOUS & BOLD! So very striking...love the EF pattern BG...spot on coloring and the sentiment, which is the only "frilly" part of this card is perfect in meaning and look!
